I like what they are offering. It’s also not that expensive in my part of the world, on par with some other cheap Chinese phones.

I’m fine with supporting small devs with cosmetics. Of course there are already mods for cosmetics

The current maps and monsters are already feeling stale though, but I’m looking forward to their promised updates including a new map type.

Right you are. I forgot about the medieval/ fantasy RTS games. Mainly I’m not that interested in them. I like otw scifi / modern army RTS

DORF is absolutely amazing looking. It has that big oversized cheesy look of Red Alert 2, but as well that the silhouette of the units looks easy to identify at a glance.

I think Tempest is closer to like C&C 3 TibWars

At least it’s not a SC2 “killer”. I mean I like SC2 enough but I don’t quite like it as C&C

I usually don’t trust big site reviews, but seeing an RTS getting an 85 in 2025 is still head turning

Or maybe we’re starved for RTS in the traditional sense

Adjacent to an e-reader, but Microsoft tried that. Typical Microsoft fashion, they fumbled it.

When bluesky blew up last year almost instantly people made block lists, curated feeds list, etc of the sort. All built in. As much shit bluesky is getting for their wrongdoings, they did make very useful good things too.

Although I have to admit I’m not a big microblogs user. I mostly follow illustrators on Twitter and bluesky, not for hot takes

They were better when they were a piracy site, price not withstanding

I’m surprised and not surprised I guess that there’s a business offering to write Wikipedia articles like this. I suppose it’s naivety to think that Wikipedia articles are written with good intentions.

While I bemoan the endless focus on cameras on smartphones, this is still some next level dedication

Advocates of the speciality coffee movement want to share the joy of elevating coffee from a daily medication to a highly pleasurable and nuanced experience that can be full of variety, and simultaneously respect for the plant and the process of bringing great beans into our home kitchens.

I respect that, since I’m already grinding my own specialty beans, albeit only using an aeropress. But at the same time, I’m not turning my nose up on the simpler “ignorant” joy of instant coffee., simply because I learned, made, and tasted more and more specialty coffee. Or “instant” anything from hobbies / movement that want to share the joy of elevating [insert thing here].

I think it’s odd in the sense that it’s supposed to be software so it should already know what 36 plus 59 is in a picosecond, instead of doing mental arithmetics like we do

At least that’s my takeaway

Looking forward to it

Gee, wouldn’t have guessed it from the rising GPU parts prices as well as the tariffs

They can deflect doubt because they are hunting pedophiles.

“You wouldn’t defend a pedophile now, would you?” - clout chasing violence monger

You can also ask/crosspost on !ergomechkeyboards@lemmy.world

Despite the platform, /r/ergomechkeyboards still is a decent place and have lots of info on getting started

Would be pretty crap of them that the smaller phone has a larger battery capacity.

In fact I’d be pissed because I’m planning to buy the OnePlus 13 kek

I didn’t want to put piefed yet since it’s still developing, but pretty fast and hard to give them credit. Is one I most looking forward to because of their topics and feeds. I thought I’d appreciate mbin having built in sorry for microblogs, but I didn’t even explore much of it

Feels that way to me. I wasn’t there like at the very beginning, but was able to be in a few small subreddits turn big. Some turned to shit, some turned okay. Lemmy/mbin a.k.a. threadiverse seems like it was before my time I started with reddit

Ads being louder than the video is a descendant from TV programming. Commercials are always blaringly louder than the show
